1.3 Jumpers
JP1 (CMOS) Clear CMOS jumper
The jumper is for BIOS setting value.
JP3 & JP3A (FSB) CPU FSB select jumper
These jumpers allow the selection of the CPU’s based external frequency. The CPU “External Frequency” multiplied by the “Frequency Multiple” equals the CPU’s “Internal Frequency”. Currently,
most of the processors have the Frequency Multiple locked, so you only need to select the External
Frequency. This motherboard will detect the proper external frequency your CPU used, so you
can leave these jumpers on their defaults, and the based external frequency will be determined by
CPU automatically. In this case you need not go to BIOS to do setup.
If you want to have some further setting, the CPU speed is setup using “IWILL Smart Setting”.
This is found in the BIOS setup program by pressing <Del> during the boot up process.

Chapter 2 Overview
YEAR 2000 issue
All motherboard currently shipped from IWILL contain BIOS capable of handling
the year 2000 data correctly.
The IBM compatible PC utilizes a Motorola MC146818 compatible Real Time Clock (RTC)
chip to maintain the date and time. Unfortunately, the “century” is not manipulated by the
RTC. It uses 8-bits of information to report the year, and can only hold the last two digits of
a year in packed BCD format. For example, 1997 is reported solely as 97. Since the RTC also
contains non-volatile memory, IBM has specified a location in the memory to hold “century”
information. By combining the century data with the year data, software can obtain a full 4digit year. When the Year 2000 arrives, the RTC reports the year as ‘00’ and the “century” in
RTC memory will contain ’19.’ Combining the full 4-digit year yields 1900, not 2000. Any
application which compare dates, or uses relative dates to perform functions will see incorrect
dates.
All motherboards contain BIOS, which is one of the key ingredients to check for systems
designed to handle the year 2000. All motherboards currently shipped from IWILL
contain BIOS capable of handling the year 2000 date correctly.
Be aware that the BIOS capability alone does not ensure that the system will handle the transition
correctly. Other system components such as the operating system and application software also need
to be able to handle the year 2000 date, and recognize the date format from other sources.

Hardware Setup
4.1 Before Installation
For installation, you may need some or all of the following tools:
Medium size flat blade screwdriver
Medium size Phillips head screwdriver
A 3/16 inch nut driver or wrench
Users must follow these guidelines to ensure the motherboard is protected
during installation.
a. Make sure your computer is powered-off whenever working with inside
components.
b. The motherboard, like all other electronic equipment, is sensitive to
static. Please take the proper precautions when handling it. If possible,
ground yourself by touching a metal table or desk. keep the board in its
conductive wrapping until it is configured and ready to be installed in
your system.
c. Keep all magnets away from both your hard and floppy disk drives,
especially magnetic screwdrivers. Keep both floppy and hard disks
apart if disassembled.
d. Keep water and liquids away from your computer and its components.
4.2 Jumper setting
4.2.1 JP1 Clear CMOS jumper (CMOS)
To reset the CMOS data, you should turn off the computer first, take the JP1 jumper cap off pins
1-2, place onto pins 2-3, and then place back onto pins 1-2 again. Then, turn on your computer,
press <Del> key during boot up and enter the BIOS setup program to re-set your preferences.

WS133 Series
Chapter 4 Hardware Setup
4.2.2 JP3 & JP3A CPU FSB select jumper (FSB)
These jumpers allow the selection of the CPU’s based external frequency. The CPU “External
Frequency” multiplied by the “Frequency Multiple” equals the CPU’s “Internal Frequency”.
Currently, most of the processors have the Frequency Multiple locked, so you only need to
select the External Frequency. This motherboard will detect the proper external frequency your
CPU used, so you can leave these jumpers on their defaults, and the based external frequency will
be determined by CPU automatically. In this case you need not go to BIOS to do setup.
The CPU speed is setup using “IWILL Smart Setting”. This is found in the BIOS setup program
by pressing <Del> during the boot up process.
After you setting up these jumpers to assign the “Based External
Frequency” you should enter BIOS setup program, select the proper CPU

Step 4:Secure the expansion card on the chassis by fastening the screw.
In the PCI bus design, the BIOS automatically assigns an IRQ to a PCI
slot that has a card in it. To check the IRQ map of your system in
Windows 98, the Control Panel icon in My Computer contains a System
icon, which gives you a Device Manager tab. Double click on a specific
hardware device gives you the Resource tab, which shows the IRQ and
address. Make sure that no two devices use the same IRQ or your
computer will experience problems. If your expansion card must be
performed with a specific IRQ, you can enter BIOS setup program to
assign the specific IRQ in PnP/PCI Configuration page.
4.6 Usage of the AMR slot
This motherboard provides a Audio Modem Riser (AMR) slot to support a specially designed audio
and/or modem card called an AMR card. Main audio and/or modem processing is done by system
processor to provide an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incredibly low cost.
There are two type of AMR card, one defined as primary and another defined as secondary. This
motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary AMR card can coexist without the
need to disable the onboard audio CODEC. The onboard audio CODEC must be disabled when
using a primary AMR card.

4.7 Connect Devices and Power Supply
All the connectors showed in this section are not jumpers, DO NOT
PLACE JUMPER CAPS OVER THE PINS OF THEM. If you do so, you
will damage the motherboard permanently.
4.7.1 Primary / Secondary IDE Connectors (IDE0 / IDE1)
This motherboard provides two independent Ultra ATA/66 IDE channels, which doubles the
ATA/33 burst data transfer rate to 66 MB/s and are 100 percent backward compatible with all
existing ATA / ATAPI devices. These connectors also support ZIP and LS-120 devices.
The ATA/66 requires a special 40-pin, 80-conductor cable that reduces noise bleed-over and
improves signal integrity by providing 40 additional ground lines between each of the standard
40-pin ATA (IDE) signal lines and ground lines. Although a new 40-pin, 80-conductor cable is
required for Ultra ATA/66, the chip set pin connector remains the same at 40.
The 40-pin, 80-conductor cables will support the Cable Detect feature. The
blue (end) connector should be connected to the system board. The black
(end) connector is known as the master position. The gray (middle)
connector can be used for slave devices.
A legacy ATA (IDE) drive can coexist with an Ultra ATA/66 drive. However, for the Ultra ATA/
66 device to attain Ultra DMA 4 mode, an Ultra ATA/66 capable cable is required.

5.1 Introduction
The motherboard uses AWARD BIOS, which is stored in flash memory and can be upgraded using
the appropriate software program. The setup program is for viewing and changing the BIOS setting
for a computer. These settings are stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains all the settings
after the power has been turned off.
5.1.1 Upgrade BIOS
The BIOS can be upgraded from a diskette with the Award Flash utility — AWDFLASH.EXE. The
BIOS image file, and update utility are available from IWILL’s WEB site: www.iwill.net
5.1.2 Enter BIOS setup program
Power-on the system by either pressing the Power-On button, or by using any of the power-on features provided by the motherboard. Then, press the <Del> key after the Power-On Self Test (POST),
and before the scanning of IDE devices. Simply look for the message “Press DEL to enter SETUP”
displayed at the bottom of the screen during the boot up process. If the message disappears before
you’ve had a chance to respond, you can restart the system by

Chapter 5 BIOS Setup
Generally, the BIOS default settings have been carefully chosen by the
system manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and
reliability. It is very dangerous to change any setting without full
understanding. We strongly recommend that you
DO NOT update your BIOS if the system works perfectly.
DO NOT change any setting unless you fully understand what it means.
If the system does not work smoothly after changing the BIOS settings, follow the procedures described previously, enter the BIOS setup program, then load the original manufacturer default settings.
If the system is no longer able to boot after changing the settings, the only way to recover it is to clear
the data stored in RTC CMOS. To reset the RTC CMOS data, take the JP1 jumper cap off pins 1-2,
place onto pins 2-3, and then place back onto pins 1-2 again. This will return the RTC to the default
setting. Then, get into the BIOS setup program , choose Load Fail-Safe Defaults ; Load Optimized
Defaults, and select the original manufacturer default settings in your CMOS.
5.2 Main Menu
The main menu allows you to select from several setup pages. Use the arrow keys to select among
these pages and press <Enter> key to enter the sub-menu. A brief description of each highlighted

Install the Suspend to IDE Hard Disk
Utility
Overview :
Suspend to Disk is an energy-saving feature that allows you to temporarily power off your system (i.e.
when you step away from your computer for a meeting, errand, etc.), then return to the original screen
(when the screen was last on) to resume your work the next time you power-on the system. This feature
is fast and efficient, especially if your system is handling a small memory size.
Although the Suspend to Disk utility can be installed without an operating system, it is highly
recommended that you first install an operating system before installing Suspend to Disk. You must first
make a “Suspend to Disk” diskette to use for installation. Insert the Power Installer CD into your CDROM, select Make Driver Diskette from the menu, and carefully follow the instructions to make a driver
diskette.
More importantly, you must ensure the Suspend to Disk feature has been disabled before installing new
devices, or upgrading your system memory.
System Requirements for installing Suspend to Disk:
1. Suspend to Disk utility only works with IDE hard disk drives. You cannot use this utility with any SCSI
device because the system BIOS controls IDE devices, but cannot control SCSI devices.
2. This feature works fine with Windows 95/98, and Windows NT FAT file systems, but does not work
with Windows NT NTFS file system.
3. This feature works fine with APM compatible PCI/AGP VGA and Sound Blaster compatible cards and
drivers.
4. The Intel Bus Master IDE driver is not fully compatible with Suspend to Disk. If this causes some
problems, please uninstall the drivers, or do not use Suspend to Disk.
5. Whether you select file or partition method, please make sure that you have enough free HDD space
for creating this hidden file or partition. Ex: if you have 64MB system memory and 4MB of VGA memory,
you need at least 68MB (64MB + 4MB) of HDD space. You also have to reserve some free space for your
future memory expansion. For example, if you plan to upgrade you system memory to 128MB in the near
future, then you may reserve a 132MB (128MB+4MB) space.
6. The following are just some of the many AGP cards that have been tested and approved to work
satisfactorily with Suspend to Disk:
